Online dating - I'm not sure about other places, but I know in the US going to online dating sites is more of a normal thing to do, than it was back in the past.
Have you tried going to online dating sites? How was your experience?
What are your thoughts on dating sites?

Never really thought about it. I definitely do not feel like I need to go on an online dating site. I have enough trouble as it is with people liking me and I don't think I need even more trouble by going on one. I just don't feel like it's worth my time or the future annoyance at the moment. I don't think I'll change my mind on this matter, even when I'm older, but the future isn't really set in stone so who knows.

I'd rather meet people organically. Even if I wanted to, I am not certain whether I would be allowed to register, being a minor and all roll eyes

I got pretty curious and made a profile a long time ago. I was doing a report on online dating at the time and thought it was a good idea, haha. I made a point of answering every message I got, which was a bad idea. Some guys got really attached to me because I took the time to reply to their messages. Nothing scary though, they just seemed really insecure and lonely. There were a few obscene messages but there weren't as many as I thought. And contrary to popular belief, there are attractive people on there! I didn't try dating anyone but I actually ended up making some really cool online friends who I still talk to.

I have a boyfriend now, but if I got back into the dating scene again I'd consider trying online dating. I hate going to bars and I don't see myself having a lot of opportunities to meet people once I graduate from college. It seems like it could be a good option...I just have to be more discriminating to who I talk to, I suppose.

I don't think I ever would, but I know a few people, women, who are my age, so in their frigging early twenties, who have gone on dating websites. To be fair to them, they've actually been successful laugh (so far anyway)
But I think it's an act of desperation, especially when they're so young. Do you really need a man that badly? :/ I guess they do. I find it a bit of a shame that they can't handle being by themselves and they need a man by their side though. I know one girl who broke up with her boyfriend, mourned for less than a month then hopped straight onto a dating site after. But hey, each to their own. If that's what they wanna do, then that's what they wanna do.
(I should probably add that the desperation part is because I know these girls and their situation. I'm not saying everyone who signs up to a dating site is desperate! People have their reasons, I know that.)

I personally am not looking for anything at the moment. If it happens then it happens. I'm not gonna go on a hunt. Tbh I'm trying to graduate and sort out my life, and that's number 1 priority for me.

I haven't been to one ever. And I can't judge without even trying it, can I? It could be something I'd try for fun, not seriously looking but who knows. I have acquaintances who've met their current partners on online dating sites. When I asked them about it, they told me that it's just a way for people to know each other and eventually meet if they are compatible.

I don't see myself signing up to one in the near future. But who knows? Maybe it'd be fun.

I accidentally made an account on a dating site and I went on to satisfy my curiosity. It was boring and not worth the time. embarrassed I didn't meet anyone that had interests remotely similar to mine(manga, anime etc.).

if you actually go searching around online for a date it's probably going to fail. i actually met my current gf online, but it was just someone i talked to on a game. traded info and got to know her better and after a bit started liking her. if you go in expecting a date it kind of takes all of the mystery and fun out of the experience. just live your life as you would normally until you run into someone you get along with and actually want to take it further with(online or rl) and then try to make it work. dating sites=waste of time imo

tho if all you're looking for is someone to hook up with for some stupid bothersome on again off again bootycall, or one night stand, relationship, then yeah online dating sites will probably line you for one no problem since 90% of the male userbase is just looking for easy chicks, and i'd imagine a fair amount of the female side is the same.
